Outdoor Art Installations Saturday Aug 5 - One Day Only

Scott Wayne Indiana has put together a project of site specific art on the land, in Mt Scott Park. Given our relationship to wild nature, within the city limits and so easily accessible without, I would like to see more. Here's hoping Indiana's LA friends take an interest in creating landscape art here.

Indiana's show is reminiscent of Mathew and Maxine Lennon's Horsehead Project in Seattle in the 90's. I only visited the last one held out in the woods. Searching out the art with no maps brought pleasant surprises in the woodland's nooks. That year the organizers sponsored a raffle with the prize being the privelege of smashing a Chihuly sculpture. I didn't win

Artists making work include: Abi Spring, Adam Graves, Blinglab (Marne Lucas/Bruce Conkle), Bonnie Fortune, Brenda Mallory, Carolyn Zick, Gretchen Bennett, Gwenn Seemel, Hamish Grieve, Harvest Henderson, Jacqueline Ehlis, Justin Oswald, Marty Schnapf, Megan Scheminske, Micheal Keenen, Mylissa Fitzsimmons, Paige Saez and TJ Norris.
